anserini

Install and verify Anserini quickly by downloading the published fatjar from Maven Central instead of cloning or building the source repository. Use when users want fast setup, smoke tests, or CLI examples from a released Anserini jar.

Run Anserini command-line and REST workflows from either a built fatjar or an Anserini source checkout. Use for PrebuiltIndexRegistry, TopicsRegistry, ad hoc search, interactive search, output formats, and RestServer examples.

Reproduce experimental results with Anserini. Use when Codex needs to run or explain Anserini reproduction workflows for published or reported results, including reproductions with prebuilt indexes, reproductions from raw document collections, reproduction YAMLs, run generation, evaluation, and metric verification.

Set up and verify Anserini source-development environments. Use for JDK 21, Maven 3.9+, submodules, Anserini build scripts, smoke tests, and Java/Maven troubleshooting in castorini/anserini.
